THE MORNING OREGONl'AN, MONDAY, JUNE 29, 1908. T OH HOUSE BUT NOT BRYAN, Democrats More Hopeful of Carrying Congress Than Electing President. TAFT NEEDS DEMOCRATS Events of Last Winter Show the Minority Party Supporting Roose velt Policies and the G. O. P. Leaders Blocking His Plans. WASHINGTON.. June 28. Special.) Democratic Members of Congress, who have lingered this long after the close of the last session, are much more hopeful of Democratic success In the neit House of Representatives than they are of the election of Mr. Bryan. While they hold that the Ienver Convention may change the situation slightly through the selection of a candidate for Vice-President, their discussion of the chances of the National party ticket is rot altogether hopeful. Soon after the National Cbnvention at l)enver It is expected that the headquar ters of the Democratic Congressional committee. In charge of Representative James T. TJoyd, of Missouri, will be moved to Chicago. The committee will make its contest in the Middle West, where It is expected that gains can be made of Democratic Congressmen. Chances in Ohio and Indiana. "Even if Mr. Bryan should fall by 28. 000 to carry Ohio," said a Democratic Representative today, "we would, if he reduced the Republican majority to that figure, stand a good chance to elect at least four Democratic Representatives where we now have but one. The same Is true of Indiana, where, should Bryan fall to carry the state by 10,000 votes and yet come that close, we would be reason ably sure to have added four more Demo crats to the number now in the House. Many of these districts are Republican by not more than 20C0 votes, and any considerable reduction in the Republican majority for President means- the election of Democrats to Congress." "We do not expect to lose much In the Bouth and hope to gain several in the Middle West." said another Democrat In close touch with the Congressional cam paign. "If the people really want a con tinuance of the Roosevelt policies they can get them with Taft "elected only by the election of a Democratic majority to the House of Representatives. Leaders Anti-Rooseveltlan. "Events of last Winter demonstrated that Representative Payne, of New York, Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, and Tawney, of Minnesota, are not kindly disposed toward the measures which President Roosevelt would have enacted. Should Taft be elected there will be a repetition of this situation in the Sixty-first Con gress, unless the House be Democratic. With a Republican House and the same leaders. Mr. Taft would meet with as stubborn opposition to Roosevelt policies, as did the President himself during the past Winter." It is regarded as settled that Repre sentative Tawney, now vice-chairman of the Republican Congressional committee, will take the place of Representative Sherman. FIGHT ON VICE-PRESIDENT (Continued From First Page.) dldate is Archibald McNeill, of Bridge port, Conn., who comes also from the Tanks of business men. Since the refusal of John Mitchell, ex-president of the United Mine Workers of America, to permit his name to be used as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor of Illinois, he has been mentioned prominently for the second place on the Democratic National ticket. His nomination would be satis factory to union labor men, it Is said. Democratic leaders are inclined to put aside any discussion of the wisdom of nominating a representative of labor, however, until some decision Is reached. In the matter of inserting in the platform the "injunction" plank advocated by the American Federation of Labor. National Chairman Thomas Taggert has announced to his colleagues that if an Indiana man is placed on the ticket his slate will go Democratic in November. . He Is pushing the candidacy of John W. Kern. Another man from Indiana men tioned in connection with the place is Representative Benjamin Shiveley. Before a majority of the delegates ar rive in Denver it may be expected that many other candidates will be suggested. The out-and-out Bryan men today were highly pleased over the easy manner in which Theodore A. Bell, of California, was yesterday named for temporary chairman. There were reports before Mr. Bell had been elected that a fight was to be made on him by Thomas Tag gart, chairman of the National com mittee, and Roger C. Sullivan, the Na tional committeeman from Illinois, buf the promised struggle did not materialize and the wishes of Mr. Bryan regarding Mr. Bell were carried out without a sign or sound of dissent. This fact was taken by the Bryan men to mean that all op position to the wishes of their leader had disappeared or at least will be only of comparatively slight Influence throughout the convention. Clayton "or Permanent Chairman. They are now counting confidently on the selection of Henry D. Clayton, of Alabama, for permanent chairman, claiming that it will be brought about as easily and with no more opposition than was that of Mr. Bell at the meeting of yesterday. No particular opposition has been made to Mr. Clayton and there are no present signs of any flght against him. Other names have been mentioned, but none from the South, save that of Sena tor Joseph W. Bailey, of Texas, and It seems to be practically certain that he will not be able to attend the convention because of ill health. It Is known that Mr. Bryan desires a permanent chair man from the South and the Bryan men believe that with Senator Bailey elim inated no man other than Clayton will be considered. More Convenient Than Was Chicago. All things considered, the coming con vention promises to be better handled and more comfortably conducted than the majority of similar gatherings in -recent years. The Auditorium is completed and only the settlement of a few details, for which there Is an abundance of time, re main to be considered.- The placing of seats for delegates and alternates began yesterday and will be completed tomor row. In one respect at least the arrange ments are far superior to those of the Republican convention, especially in re gard to the accommodations provided for newspapar men. The ingeniously incon venient and inadequate arrangements at ( Chicago are to have no parallel at Denver. The writing tables are strong and sub stantial and the aisles between them are sufficiently wide to permit a messenger I to pass behind the chairs. This could not be done at Chicago where the only method of exit for a man at the far end of a row was either to compel other men in that row to arise so that he could climb over their c .airs, or to walk along the top of the table on which other people were writing. The hall itself is apparently a model for convention purposes, although it is possible some defects will be manifested before the great political gathering Is over. Its shape Is such that a far greater number of people will be within range of a speaker's voice than was pos sible at the Chicago Coliseum. The city itself is making every possible preparation to entertain its visitors in the most hospitable manner. The great majority of the business houses and many of the residences will be decorated, and under the direction and active encourage ment of a number of patriotic organiza tions the display of bunting promises to surpass anything of the kind seen In the West in many years. The great mass of decorations is to be in place by July 4 and will be allowed to remain until after the the convention has adjourned. Even In its normal condition, Den ver Is a city of lavish electric display, and when plans now under way have been completed the sight by night will be one that would do credit even to an electrical exposition. The great Capi tal building, with its vantage point on the summit of a commanding emi nence, when lighted up is a spectacle of real beauty. At the apex of the golden-colored dome is placed an enor mous light which can easily be seen at a distance of 40 miles, and down the sloping sides of the dome itself and along the edges of the manifold cor nices and projections and iV tne toP of PROMINENT AMONG POSSIBILITIES FOR DEMOCRATIC VICE-PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE -S- s si - J Judge Geo. Gray, of Delaware. the massive granite columns which stand at the four sides of the great structure, have been placed thousands of smaller lights, which render the building by night a revelation well worth a far journey to see, and one which, when once beheld, will not soon be forgotten. TRAIN RUNS DOWN SAILOR Fails to Heed Warning and Is I'nder Wheels. OAKLAND. Cal., June 28 Jeremiah Sullivan, chief water tender of the battleship Connecticut, met death this evening under the wheels of an Ala meda local train. In company with Grover Dobson. who was discharged from the -Navy yesterday. Sullivan was waiking along the track. A tower man warned the men of the approach of the. train, but Sullivan failed to heed him in time. His body was dragged for several hundred feet by the engine before the wheels finally passed over it. TWO KILLED; TWO INJURED (Continued From First Page.) der the care of a physician. At a late hour last night the child was still alive, although It was announced that hope of her recovery had been prac tically abandoned. Falls Under Car Wheels. Unsuccessful in an attempt to board train No. 22 of the Mount Scott line as it was leaving Kern Park yester day morning at 11:25 o'clock, Ole Jem tegaard, 321 East Thirty-third, street, was thrown under the rear trucks of the back trailer and met Instant death, his head being practically severed from his body. Jemtegaard was 26 years old and a carpenter. He caught the rail with his left hand but his feet slipped and he fell to the ground, falling beneath the wheels. Jemtegaard had escorted two young women, Kffio and Florence Cruzen, of Kern Park, to the station and placed them on the train. He had evidently been persuaded at the last moment to make the trip to the city, as the train was just starting when he attempted to board. The Cruren girls are said to have called to him just as the train was moving away from the sta tion to "come on." He hesitated, but sprang from the station platform and ran for the trailer. His fall was wit nessed by more than a hundred pas sengers. Hl two companions were beside hiin when he fell to the ground aid rolled under the trucks of the car. Jemtegaard had been a resident of Portland for several years, having come originally from Minnesota. He was single. Drowned tn a slough at Falrvlew was the fate of Oland Jackson, aged 16. who, with two companions, had gone into the water shortly after 4 o'clock Saturday afternoon. Young Jackson,, was the son of Hugh Jackson, of Fatrview. and was employed on the farm of a neighbor. His com panions, Karl Washburn and another youth, each 17 years of age. were also residents of Fairvlew and lived near the Jackson farm. None of the three boys knew how to swim. Jackson started out in the lead, after reaching the water's edge, and suddenly disappeared from sight. Realizing their Inability to do anything to save him. the two boys hurried to the ranch and sum moned assistance. When the slough was dragged the body of the boy was found. The slough Is hardly more than two feet deep at any other place. Evans Will Not Die. While running to second base in a base ball game between the Portland Police team and the I. Gevurtz Company nine. Patrolman Lawrence K. Evans collided with Second Baseman Crosby of the fur niture dealers' club and sustained such a blow on the head that it was feared he had been killed. He was hurried to Good Samaritan Hospital in an ambulance, after which he was taken to his home, and his condition, while critical, permits hope to be entertained of his Immediate Evans is one of the best known and most popular members of the Police Department, and at the time of his accident was temporarily off duty for the purpose of playing with the police team. The accident happened In the seventh inning and the game was called shortly afterward with the score standing 15 to 2 in favor of the police. 3 4 " J NOTED SPEAKERS AT CENTENNIAL Temperance Congress . Dele gates From Many Lands at Saratoga Springs. ENTHUSIASM AT MEETINGS Commemorating Formation of First Temperance Society, Many Or ganizations Are Represent ed at the Anniversary. SARATOGA SPRINGS. N. Y., June 23. (Special Correspondence.) -.The rains descended and the floods came, but this did not prevent the railroads 2 Len ta S. Chanter, of New York. from landing us in Chicago only a little off of schedule time. We had the unique experience of waiting at one point for the track to be laid over the washed-out district, water at the right of us, water at the left of us, water everywhere. As many passengers were en route to their homes from a visit to our Rose Festival, it was but natural that the leading theme of conversation was Portland. A "promoter" from an ad joining state expressed his firm con viction that Portland was commercially solid and in the nest of financial con dition. He said furthermore, that the people of Portland all looked happy and contented, as though they were glad they were living, and as though they were looking forward with pleas ant anticipation to the coming days, and that the people of Seattle had a wor ried look, as though they feared what was coming next. The universal opin ion seemed to be that Portland was not only a beautiful, hospitable city, but was a great center of commercial pros perity. Our objective point was the Centen nial Temperance Congress held in the far-famed health resort, Saratoga Springs. This has been of peculiar In terest, having for its main object the commemoration of the 100th anniver sary of the first temperance society ever organized. It is an Interesting fart to note that the originator of this first society was a medical man, and that he was prompted to organize it because of the evils he personally came in contact with through his profes sional duties. Delegates From 5Iany Countries. Never has there been a meeting of deeper import than this one. Men and women from every country, represent ing the highest and best interests of humanity, lifted their voices unitedly in singing. "Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow," as the various Sections of the country recounted the progress of the temperance movement. In the opening day welcomes were ex tended from the village and from the state. The. latter being represented by the Secretary of State, J. Whalen. Hon. Oliver Stewart. ex-Senator of Illinois, delivered a brilliant address in response, then the delegates appointed by the sev eral Governors of states gave a few words of greeting. Oregon was officially repre sented by the writer, who was the only delegate from that state. The International Independent Order of Good Templars held a reception ban quet,' w'hich was not only a social event, but "live wires" vibrated and electric sparks lighted up the occasion. Dis tinguished foreigners were here from England and Scotland. India and other countries. The SonB of Temperance held their annual convention and among other matters of business declared against danc ing in the lodgeroom. The Reform Bu reau, with Rev. Wilbur Crafts at the head, held many enthusiastic meetings. The Anti-Saloon League was out with a large delegation and the Civic League of Maine had a fine exhibit, showing the prosperity and achievements of that pro hibition state. The exhibit by the Amer ican Society for the Study of Inebriety, Alcoholism and the Drug Neurosis, was one of the most extensive ever held, and this branch was represented by such men as Dr. T. D. Crothers. editor of the Jour nal of Inebriety; Henry O. Marcy, M. D., I.L. D. : Dr. John D. Quackenbos, ex professor of psychology in Columbia Col lege: Dr. J. H. Kellogg and many more leading medical men. Every phase of the scientific side of the question was covered. A woman's congress was held each day and live topics were ably handled by representative women. Closes With Big Meeting. The children's t parade, on Saturday, was a magnificent showing of the Sunday schools of this vicinity, some thousand children being in line with banners and decorations. The mass meeting of all the various sections, held the second Sunday after noon, was a great meeting, the address being delivered by J. G. Woolley, lately returned from New Zealand. Monday and Tuesday, the two closing days of the congress, the state and National W. C. T. U. held all-day meetings. Addresses were given by prominent National speak ers. The young people's societies were much in evidence and the culmination of their deliberations was in form of an Interstate oratorical contest, contestants coming from New York, Pennsylvania. Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and Illinois. Lieutenant-General A. S. Daggett, of Washington, gave his convincing address on the Army canteen question. With 40 years' experience tn Army life, General Daggett speaks with authority. Frances Graham, president of the W. C. T. U. of the State of New York, stirred every heart with her sweet songs. Two events In connection of the con- ,if- '-it i gress should be especially noted, the trip to the old home of Billy Clark, the founder of the first society formed. A boulder had been taken from the farm and a bronze tablet bears a medallion of Dr. Billy J. Clark, and the following inscription: Near this pot. In April. 1SOS. there was organized by Dr. Billy J. Clark and others, the First Temperance Society In History. To commemorate that event, this tahlot was erected tn June. 1008. in connection with the World's Temperance Centennial Congress. Committee of promotion: J. H. Durkee, William T. Wardwell. John McKee. Charles E. Robbins. C. J. Taft, Alfred L. Manierre, Captain Henry M. Randall, Levi Hoag. A memorial service was held at the cemetery where the remains of Billy Clark are laid. The last meeting was a union meeting of all the sections, and it goes without saying that it w'as full of intellectual fireworks as well as patriotic fervor. The congress has been a great and im portant occasion. While in numbers it did not perhaps come up to the expecta tion of its promoters, yet it was a gath ering of the most representative leaders and workers of moral and civic reform, which will be a marked milestone, stand ing out on the pages of the future history of the country. LUCIA FAXON ADDITON, Official Delegate from Oregon. FILIPINOS WATCH D0UMA Island Leaders Greatly Interested in Russian Police Policy. ST. PETERSBURG, June 28. Manuel SI organ J. O'Brien, of New York. Quezon, the Filipino assemblyman, his secretary, Mr. Rogers, and Mr. Ka lawa, editor of the Renacimiento. have finished their study of the Douma and have left here for Berlin and Paris. They also will visit Switzerland and Egypt before returning home. The Filipinos attracted much atten tion in the douma. They met a num ber of the leaders of that body. Their trip was undertaken at the initiative of the War Department at Washington with the object of broadening the out look of the Filipino leaders. Senor Quezon was agreeably im pressed by his observations of the Rus sian policy toward Poland and Finland, the severity of the police regime and the results of the policy of the first and second douma. He spoke of the advantages of the American attitude toward the Philippine Islands and of the necessity of the Philippines going slowly In the development of legisla tive autonomy. He sympathized with the position of the Philippine assembly for an independency, but feared this resolution would have an unfavorable effect on American opinion. AN ATTACK FROM VATICAN Part-Anglican Congress Ridiculed in Pope's Publication. ROME, June 2S. The Osservatore Ro mano, the organ of the Vatican, in an editorial concerning the recent Pan-An-gelican Congress In London, says: "Religion without a legitimate hierachy, although calling itself Christianity, is a re ligion only for this world, as the questions discussed by the Pan-Angelican Congress show. Throughout the centuries all re ligions that have arisen without the seal of the real divine personality were sim ilar to that discussed at the Pan-Angelican Congress. All of them aimed at securing the largest amount of joy in this life without caring for the other world." At the end of a strong attack the Osser vatore Romano says that Catholic Rome tomorrow will celebrate with its venera tion the anniversary of the death of St. Peter at' his tomb, which is a miracle of art, and that this veneration will answer better than anything else the su perlative poverty of the Pan-Angelican Congress. From the attitude of the Os servatore Romano it is supposed that Pope Pius X will deal with the recent congress held In London in his forth comig encyclical. SHOWS SUN SPOT GROUPS Eclipse Plainly Seen at Washington Naval Observatory. ' WASHINGTON, June 28. The eclipse of the -sun served to attract astronomers and spectators to the United States Naval Observatory here today, where that event was observed with keen interest. The day could hardly have been more favor able for the purpose. The first contact occurred 35 minutes and 28 seconds after 9 o'clock this morning, which was ten seconds ahead of the predicted time, while the second contact occurred 49 minutes and 2 seconds jfast noon, being 23 sec onds ahead of the predicted time. The image of the sun was almost per fect" when the eclipse first occurred, but it was not so good at the time of the second contact, owing to clouds. There were five scientists taking observations with the different observatory instru ments, and the variation of time anong the different observers was less than two seconds. Professor George H. Peters, of the Naval Observatory, took seven pho tographs with the photo-heliograph, which showed. In addition to the moon projected upon the sun, three fairly large sun snot groups.

IN- "i BALD IA S MEN WIN General's Party Carries. Elec tions in Panama. MAY MAKE HIM PRESIDENT United States Mariner on Hand to Keep Order, but Xo Riots of Any Consequence Are Reported. PANAMA, June 28. Balloting in the municipal elections throughout the Isth mus was concluded at 4 o'clock this aft ernoon. There were no disorders here. A big majority was given the ticket supported by General Obaldla, a candi date for the Presidency of the Republic in the elections that will take place next month in Panama. Returns from Arral jan, Tabagoo and Chame, the only points from which advices have been received, show that the ticket of Obaldia also won there. Reports received from several of the provinces say that disturbances occurred, but they were not serious. Though the municipal elections today were unimportant, . Obaldia's triumph in the capital is regarded as evidence of hi popularity, as the supporters of the can didates favored by the government made strenuous efforts to win. Throughout the day the streets in the vicinity of the polling places were crowded with people who were brought from various parts of the city in car riages decorated with flags. Every train from the canal zone also brought citizens to vote. The party that wins the municipal election probably will be victorious in the balloting for Presi dential electors, which Is to be held July 12. rCLE SAM ON THE LOOKOUT Marines Ready at All Times to Quell Expected Disorders on Shore. COLON. June 28. General Obaldia's candidates carried today's municipal elections here by a majority of 94 votes. The total vote east was 582. Tnroughout the day order prevailed. The Government party is downcast by the result. The result of the vote in neighboring districts will not be known until tomorrow. United States marines are ashore in the canal zone to protect property of the American ' Government, but no trouble is expected to ensue. The bat tleships Iowa and New Hampshire left the roadstead yesterday, the former for Cuba and the latter for New York. The auxiliary cruiser Prairie is still at Pier II., and the commander of the marines aboard is prepared instantly to land a large force if necessary. The cruiser Tacoma is In the harbor. As an additional precaution all the docks and the railroad tracks In this vicinity were kept clear today and fire hose was distributed throughout the vicinity. A strict guard was also main tained over all buildings belonging to the United States. The balloting began at 8 o'clock this morning and ended at 9 P. M. Occa sionally during the day there were loud protests from the crowd against alleged illegal voting. W. A. Martin and Paul Wuttke. Americans, watched the proceedings at two of the polling places here. LOGGING ON WIND RIVER Large Crew of Men to Be Placed in Woods Above Carson. CARSON, Wash., June 28. (Special.) The Wind River-Lumber Company, which recently lost its mill at Menomine, by fire, has put a force of men up Wind River who will flood the Btream by means of splash dams and get down several mil lion feet of logs that He along the crooked, rocky stream. It is reported that 50 or 60 men will be put onto this work and later in the season the logging camps will be opened up again. The company has six camps equipped with donkey engines, which make good head way in landing the sawlogs into Wind River and Its tributaries. The logs are then floated down to the Columbia River and thence to Cascade Locks, where the big sawmill is located. During the past years this Company has proven about the only factor In the de velopment of this rich and fertile valley, and now that a large area of country is logged off, together with the fact that Carson is In close touch with the outside world, by reason of the operation of" the North Bank Road, there are many in ducements to offer the homeseeker. JAPAN QUALIFIES POSITION M illing to Let China Build One Road But Not Another. TOKIO. June 29. Regarding the recent announcement that Japanese would in terpose no objection to the construction of the Hsln Mintun Fukumen Railroad, the enterprise being fostered by the Chi nese government, it is now officially ex plained that the announcement did not apply to a direct line between these points. Japan is ready to aid In any project looking to the building of a road to connect Fukumen with some point on the line of the South Manchurlan Rail road, thus affording the rail connection betjveen Fukumen and Hsin Mintun and aiding the development of Fukumen but it will never consent to the direct line planned, as It believes that China would eventually extend that line to Join the trans-Siberian road. The building of the line as countenanced by Japan means practically the same amount of construction work for the con tractors as the building of the direct route would afford. SHOOTS ENEMY IN SALOON William Evans Fatally Wounds George Godfrey in feau Francisco." SAN FRANCISCO, June 28. George Godfrey, a plasterer, was probably fatally shot tonight by William Evans, another plasterer, in McMahon's saloon. 1600 Dovlsadero street.

This evening Godfrey entered the saloon and as soon a? he appeared Evans drew a revolver and fired four shots at him, alt the bullets taking effect. Evans and the other men In the saloon made a hurried escape. When the patrol wagon arrived on the scene a "brother of Evans stepped up to the officers and claimed he did the shooting.
